[9分]Kerala Literature Festival 2025 — Where Stories Come Alive By The Sea
Held from January 23 to 25, the eighth edition of the Kerala Literature Festival featured 380 sessions, 500 speakers from 15 countries, and over 600,000 participants. Some literary giants are fully engaged, sharing the knowledge of literature they’ve gathered over the years and thus enriching the experience for their audience.
Here’s what went down at Kerala Literature Festival 2025 in Kozhikode.
Day 1 started with the ‘Children’s KLF: Storytelling’ group featuring a lively discussion about the challenges of adapting literature for the screen, whether as a screenplay or a film. Participants emphasised the difficulties of adapting a good book into either form while doing justice to the original work and the audience engagement in storytelling.
Day 2 witnessed a notable session ‘Amrut: The Phenomenal Global Story of India’s First Single Malt’, in which author Sriram Devatha discussed his book, which beautifully combines a remarkable business model with one of the finest alcohol produced in India, revealing several myths surrounding the wine-making process and sharing insights with the audience.
Day 3 featured one of the most interesting sessions, ‘A Wonderland of Words’, in which Shashi Tharoor reflected on his literary journey. He discussed how language is evolving, its variations worldwide, and why this should be celebrated. He also stressed the importance of reading in the digital age.
With literary giants travelling from around the world and their readers following, Kozhikode and the Kerala Literature Festival have established themselves as important destinations for book lovers. This growing importance contributed to Kozhikode being recognised as UNESCO’s City of Literature in 2024.

二、阅读单选（4题）（本大题共3小题，共24分）
[8分]Since young children went back to school across Sweden recently, many of their teachers have been putting a new emphasis on printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice, and devoting less time to tablets, independent online research and keyboarding skills.
The return to more traditional ways of learning is a response to politicians and experts questioning whether Sweden’s hyper-digitalized approach to education, including the introduction of tablets in nursery schools, had led to a decline in basic skills.
Sweden’s minister for schools, Lotta Edholm was one of the biggest critics of the all-out embrace of technology. “Sweden’s students need more textbooks,” Edholm said in March. “Physical books are important for student learning.” The minister announced in August that the government wanted to change the decision by the national agency for education to make digital devices compulsory in preschools. It plans to go further and to completely end digital learning for children under age six, the ministry has told the Associated Press.
Although Sweden’s students score above the European average for reading ability, an international assessment of fourth-grade reading levels, the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), highlighted a decline among Sweden’s children between 2016 and 2021.
In comparison, Singapore — which topped the rankings — improved its PIRLS reading scores from 576 to 587 during the same period, and England’s average reading achievement score fell only slightly, from 559 in 2016 to 558 in 2021. An overuse of screens during school lessons may cause youngsters to fall behind in core subjects, education experts say. “There’s clear scientific evidence that digital tools impair rather than enhance student learning,” Sweden’s Karolinska Institute, a highly respected medical school focused on research, said in a statement in August on the country’s national digitalization strategy in education.
“We believe the focus should return to acquiring knowledge through printed textbooks and teacher expertise, rather than acquiring knowledge primarily from freely available digital sources that have not been checked for accuracy.” the school added.
4．（2分）Why do Swedish schools return to paper books
A．To cater to parents’ increasing needs.
B．To help with children’s independent learning.
C．To overcome children’s addiction to digital tools.
D．To avoid possible decline in children’s basic skills.
5．（2分）What does the underlined words “all-out embrace” mean in Paragraph 3
A．Total acceptance. B．Creative use.
C．Rapid development. D．Serious addiction.
6．（2分）What might Karolinska Institute agree with
A．Teachers should acquire more knowledge.
B．Knowledge from digital tools may not be reliable.
C．Digital tools smooth out learning barriers for children.
D．The accessibility to digital sources should be improved.
7．（2分）Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A．Swedish Children’s Return to Paper B．Problems with Children’s Education
C．Popularity of Digitalization in Sweden D．Enhancement of Teaching Strategies in Sweden
[8分]In 1910, the Los Angeles Times ran a story about a boy tasked with opening a valve (阀门) on a steam-powered water pump to release built - up pressure. His entire job was staring at the machines all day, an incredibly boring task. The “lazy” boy, however, invented an automatic release that let the pump run properly, winning his freedom — and in doing so, creating the first automatic steam engine.
Though the story may be fictional, the boy’s behavior reflects a deeper truth: When we feel lazy, we often look for easier ways, trying to improve processes and save time and effort. In other words, laziness can drive innovation.
In recent years, some psychologists and business leaders have come to grasp this insight, shifting our view of what laziness really means. Walter Chrysler is said to have noted: “I always choose a lazy person to do a hard job because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it.”
Our brains are naturally inclined toward laziness. Unlike our ancestors, who had to conserve energy to compete for food, flee predators, and fight, we no longer face survival as a daily concern. It might seem natural to be “lazier,” but the opposite has happened. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Americans now sleep less and work more than before; worker productivity has risen 400 percent since 1950. Our culture teaches us that our worth depends on how hard we work. So we push even harder to produce more.
Yet there’s a big, sad paradox: The harder we work, the less productive we become. When demands rise, we tend to push harder. But without rest and recharge, we grow less efficient, make more mistakes, and feel less engaged.
So how can we make labor more meaningful and life more fulfilling Current research in psychology and neuroscience points to valuing a wandering mind. Take breaks, let thoughts drift — learn to be idle. This week, notice downtime in your day, empty spaces on your calendar. Instead of filling them with more work, just sit on the sofa and be, as poet Mary Oliver put it, “idle and blessed.”
8．（2分）What is the author’s attitude to the boy opening the valve
A．Dismissive.
B．Supportive.
C．Ambiguous.
D．Doubtful.
9．（2分）What can be concluded from paragraph 4
A．Contemporary society respects creativity.
B．Americans are living a worse life than before.
C．Our ancestors considered work unbearable.
D．People nowadays still need to struggle with poverty.
10．（2分）What does the underlined word “paradox” in paragraph 5 mean
A．Wild imagination.
B．Unclear explanation.
C．Strange contradiction.
D．Rare phenomenon.
11．（2分）What is the author’s purpose writing the text
A．Compare the old and new views on laziness.
B．Criticize irresponsible attitude towards hard work.
C．Advise people to abandon the value of hard work.
D．Inspire people to stay refreshed for better work and life.
[8分]Just off the Florida Keys lies the world’s third-largest coral reef (珊瑚礁), which was once an energetic habitat for millions of plants and animals. But an outbreak of stony coral tissue loss disease threatens to destroy 20 of the 45 species found there, including larger reef-building corals.
“This disease that is burning through the Florida Keys is an unbelievable event that is happening,” said Andrew Stamper, conservation science manager at Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment. “It’s like a wildfire.” Stamper said that would endanger Florida’s fishing industry and food supply. “Unfortunately, we do not know exactly what is causing this,” he said.
In order to save the reef, scientists have moved some species hundreds of miles away to a lab in Orlando. Scientists work to simulate breeding (繁殖) conditions in the lab. The conditions are exactly the same as the living conditions of the coral. The work needs a lot of care, effort and attention to detail. LED lights exactly copy the sun and moon cycles. Volunteers feed the coral in water treated to mimic its real habitat.
“This essentially is a gene bank,” said Jim Kinsler, leader of SeaWorld Orlando. “We’re trying to protect the genetics of these corals so that their offspring(后代)can eventually be returned back to the Florida reef area.”
The task of relocating the lab-grown coral to the sea is also a detailed task. Kinsler, who is part of a team of private and public partners operating the Florida Coral Rescue Center, said, “It’s the first time that many of them have been involved in rescuing an entire ecosystem,”
“We think the real challenge is just growing them out to a size, so we can test them in those waters, test their disease resistance (抵抗力), and then breed the successful corals by the hundreds of thousands literally,” said Andrew Walker, president of the Fish & Wildlife Foundation of Florida.
12．（2分）What do we know about the Florida Keys
A．It owns the world’s largest coral reef.
B．A disease broke out among people there.
C．The world’s third-largest coral reef is close to it.
D．It is now the habitat of millions of plants and animals.
13．（2分）What do Andrew Stamper’s words mean
A．The root of the disease is unclear.
B．A wildfire broke out in the Florida Keys.
C．The disease will spread across the Earth.
D．The disease has caused a great loss to the locals.
14．（2分）What does the underlined word “simulate” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Copy. B．Contrast. C．Escape. D．Feature.
15．（2分）What is the purpose of the research according to Andrew Walker
A．To restore the coral in the lab.
B．To sell the coral in the normal size.
C．To make more people involved in protecting the ecosystem.
D．To produce masses of disease-resistant coral back to the sea.
三、七选五阅读（本大题共1小题，共15分）
[15分]If something that you’re doing doesn’t challenge you, then it doesn’t change you. We all need some normal stress in our lives, after all. 16（3分） So challenge the following limits:
1）Figure out what you’re scared of and do it continuously.
If you’re a salesman, and you’re scared of talking to people personally or over the phone now, instead of being scared and thinking you’ll fail, spend at least five minutes a day to pick up the phone and make a call. 17（3分） But don’t stop on the first try! Eventually, you can look at fear in the eye and say, “Go on. I’m not scared!”
2）18
Make sure this hobby is not linked to your career; you have to relax and relieve your stress while performing this. Some examples might be cooking, sewing, painting and so on. Apart from helping you challenge yourself, taking a class for your hobby may also give you extra income.

18（3分） A simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself. Exercise can not only help you maintain your regular weight, but also make you feel better about yourself.

It was August, the busiest season for tourism. Oliver Holland, the owner of a restaurant in a scenic spot, was expecting as many as 500 tourists to visit and eat there each day. With a joyful heart, he jumped into his truck and set off to his restaurant. Before he turned onto the main road he had to go through an eleven-kilometer tunnel. It was the only access to his restaurant from his home.
Two years earlier a truck caught fire inside the tunnel and its closure for repairs was a huge blow to his business. When the road to his restaurant was blocked, the stream of tourists stopped. Although it was difficult, he managed to keep his staff on.
“This year will be a perfect year.” Oliver thought.
Inside the tunnel everything went normal. But when he was near the end, Oliver spotted an unusual light 50 meters ahead. Then he saw something burning.
He stopped in his tracks and saw a tour bus on fire! At the back where the engine was, dozens of tourists were running towards him.
“They’re going the wrong way.” Oliver thought, knowing the tunnel exit was just 500 meters ahead. Then he realized the bus was now burning so fiercely that it was impossible for them to get around it.
As a former volunteer firefighter, Oliver first had to raise the alarm. “A bus is on fire Stop the traffic!” he texted with shaking hands, while thick smoke pouring out of the bus kept blowing in his direction under the influence of the strong wind. In no time it would black out the tunnel, choking and blinding anyone inside it. There was no chance for the poor tourists to survive. Every minute counted.

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了瑞典学校回归纸质书是为了避免儿童基本技能的可能下降，引用了各界人士对此的看法和态度。
【详解】4．细节理解题。根据第二段“The return to more traditional ways of learning is a response to politicians and experts questioning whether Sweden’s hyper-digitalized approach to education, including the introduction of tablets in nursery schools, had led to a decline in basic skills.(回归更传统的学习方式是对政治家和专家的回应，他们质疑瑞典的超数字化教育方式，包括在幼儿园引入平板电脑，是否导致了基本技能的下降)”可知，瑞典学校回归纸质书是为了避免儿童基本技能的可能下降。故选D。
5．词句猜测题。根据划线词后文““Sweden’s students need more textbooks,” Edholm said in March.(“瑞典的学生需要更多的教科书，”埃德霍尔姆在3月份说)”可知，埃德霍尔姆对于完全接受科技处于批评态度。故划线词意思是“完全接受”。故选A。
6．细节理解题。根据最后一段““We believe the focus should return to acquiring knowledge through printed textbooks and teacher expertise, rather than acquiring knowledge primarily from freely available digital sources that have not been checked for accuracy.” the school added.(“我们认为，重点应该回归到通过印刷教科书和教师专业知识获取知识，而不是主要从未经准确性检查的免费数字资源获取知识。”学校补充道)”可知，卡罗林斯卡学院可能会同意来自数字工具的知识可能不可靠。故选B。
7．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Since young children went back to school across Sweden recently, many of their teachers have been putting a new emphasis on printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice, and devoting less time to tablets, independent online research and keyboarding skills.(自从瑞典各地的孩子们最近回到学校以来，他们的许多老师都把新的重点放在了印刷书籍、安静的阅读时间和书写练习上，减少了花在平板电脑、独立在线研究和键盘技能上的时间)”结合文章主要说明了瑞典学校回归纸质书是为了避免儿童基本技能的可能下降，引用了各界人士对此的看法和态度。可知，A选项“瑞典儿童重返纸质书”最符合文章标题。故选A。
【答案】8．B 9．B 10．C 11．D
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章借男孩发明自动蒸汽发动机的故事引出“懒惰能驱动创新”观点，指出当下人们虽大脑倾向懒惰却工作更努力，陷入努力工作但效率降低的矛盾，建议人们学会休息放空，让工作和生活更有意义。
【详解】8．推理判断题。根据第二段“Though the story may be fictional, the boy’s behavior reflects a deeper truth: When we feel lazy, we often look for easier ways, trying to improve processes and save time and effort. In other words, laziness can drive innovation. (虽然这个故事可能是虚构的，但这个男孩的行为反映了一个更深层次的事实：当我们感到懒惰时，我们通常会寻找更简单的方法，试图改善流程，节省时间和精力。换句话说，懒惰可以推动创新。)”可推断作者对男孩这种看似懒惰实则创新的行为是支持的。故选B。
9．推理判断题。根据第四段“Our brains are naturally inclined toward laziness. Unlike our ancestors, who had to conserve energy to compete for food, flee predators, and fight, we no longer face survival as a daily concern. It might seem natural to be “lazier,” but the opposite has happened. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Americans now sleep less and work more than before; worker productivity has risen 400 percent since 1950. Our culture teaches us that our worth depends on how hard we work. So we push even harder to produce more. (我们的大脑天生就倾向于懒惰。与我们的祖先不同，他们必须保存能量来争夺食物，逃离掠食者，并进行战斗，我们不再把生存作为日常关注的问题。“更懒”似乎很自然，但事实恰恰相反。根据美国劳工统计局的数据，美国人现在比以前睡得更少，工作得更多；自1950年以来，工人的生产率提高了400%。我们的文化告诉我们，我们的价值取决于我们工作的努力程度。因此，我们更加努力地生产更多产品。)”指出美国人睡眠更少、工作时间更长且生产率激增但文化过度推崇“价值取决于努力工作”。此现象暗示生活压力增大，所以美国人的生活比以前更糟糕。故选B。
10．词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“The harder we work, the less productive we become. (我们工作越努力，效率却越低)”可知，工作越努力，效率却越低，是一种奇怪的矛盾情况，所以“paradox”意思是“Strange contradiction (奇怪的矛盾)”，故选C。
11．推理判断题。文章先阐述懒惰能驱动创新，接着指出人们工作中努力却低效的问题，再根据最后一段“So how can we make labor more meaningful and life more fulfilling Current research in psychology and neuroscience points to valuing a wandering mind. Take breaks, let thoughts drift — learn to be idle. This week, notice downtime in your day, empty spaces on your calendar. Instead of filling them with more work, just sit on the sofa and be, as poet Mary Oliver put it, “idle and blessed.” (那么，我们怎样才能让劳动更有意义，让生活更充实呢？目前心理学和神经科学的研究表明，人们重视走神。休息一下，让思绪飘散——学会闲散。这周，注意你一天中的休息时间，日历上的空白时间。与其用更多的工作填满它们，不如坐在沙发上，像诗人玛丽·奥利弗所说的那样，“悠闲而幸福”)”可推断作者目的是激励人们保持精神饱满，以获得更好的工作和生活。故选D。
【答案】12．C 13．A 14．A 15．D
【分析】本文为一篇新闻报道。佛罗里达附近的第三大珊瑚礁面临珊瑚组织丧失疾病的威胁，科学家们将一些物种转移到奥兰多的实验室以保护遗传基因，并试图培育出抵抗疾病的珊瑚。最终目标是将实验室培育的珊瑚重新回到佛罗里达旁的珊瑚礁区。
【详解】12．细节理解题。根据第一段“Just off the Florida Keys lies the world’s third-largest coral reef(珊瑚礁), which was once an energetic habitat for millions of plants and animals. But an outbreak of stony coral tissue loss disease threatens to destroy 20 of the 45 species found there, including larger reef-building corals. (佛罗里达群岛附近有世界第三大珊瑚礁，这里曾经是数百万动植物的栖息地。但是，石珊瑚组织丧失疾病的爆发威胁着那里45种珊瑚中的20种，包括更大的造礁珊瑚。)”可知，世界第三大珊瑚礁在佛罗里达群岛附近，爆发疾病的是珊瑚，珊瑚礁区有数百万动植物。故选C项。
13．推理判断题。根据第二段“‘This disease that is burning through the Florida Keys is an unbelievable event that is happening,' said Andrew Stamper, conservation science manager at Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment. ‘It’s like a wildfire.’ Stamper said that would endanger Florida’s fishing industry and food supply. ‘Unfortunately, we do not know exactly what is causing this,’ he said. (迪士尼动物、科学与环境保护科学经理斯坦珀说，‘正在佛罗里达群岛肆虐的这种疾病是一件令人难以置信的事情。它就像野火一样。’斯坦珀说，这将危及佛罗里达州的渔业和食品供应。他说，‘不幸的是，我们并不确切知道是什么导致了这种情况。’)”可知，珊瑚组织丧失疾病的根源尚不清楚。故选A项。
14．词句猜测题。根据第三段“In order to save the reef, scientists have moved some species hundreds of miles away to a lab in Orlando. Scientists work to simulate breeding(繁殖)conditions in the lab. The conditions are exactly the same as the living conditions of the coral. The work needs a lot of care, effort and attention to detail. LED lights exactly copy the sun and moon cycles. Volunteers feed the coral in water treated to mimic its real habitat. (为了拯救珊瑚礁，科学家们已经将一些物种转移到数百英里外奥兰多的一个实验室。科学家们在实验室里simulate繁殖条件。这些条件与珊瑚的生存条件完全相同。这项工作需要大量的细心、努力和对细节的关注。LED灯完全模仿太阳和月亮的周期。志愿者用模拟珊瑚真实栖息地的水喂养珊瑚。)”可知，在实验室里创造出的生存条件、太阳、月亮的周期，以及水都与珊瑚礁在原来栖息地的条件完全相同，即实验室模拟了珊瑚礁原有的繁殖条件，simulate意为“模拟，模仿”，与Copy意思相近，故选A项。
15．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“‘This essentially is a gene bank,’ said Jim Kinsler, leader of SeaWorld Orlando. ‘We’re trying to protect the genetics of these corals so that their offspring (后代) can eventually be returned back to the Florida reef area.’ (奥兰多海洋世界的负责人金斯勒说，这实际上是一个基因库,‘我们正在努力保护这些珊瑚的基因，这样它们的后代最终就能回到佛罗里达的珊瑚礁区。’)”可知，科学家们保护珊瑚基因，希望能使他们的后代重返佛罗里达的珊瑚礁区。最后一段“‘We think the real challenge is just growing them out to a size, so we can test them in those waters, test their disease resistance (抵抗力), and then breed the successful corals by the hundreds of thousands literally,’ said Andrew Walker, president of the Fish & Wildlife Foundation of Florida. (佛罗里达州鱼类和野生动物基金会主席安德鲁·沃克说：‘我们认为真正的挑战只是把它们长到一定的尺寸，这样我们就可以在那些水域测试它们，测试它们的抗病能力，然后培育出成千上万的成功珊瑚。’)”，根据安德鲁·沃克的话可知，研究的目的是实验室能培育出成千上万的有抗病能力的珊瑚，这样它们才有机会重新回到佛罗里达的珊瑚礁区。故选D项。

44．【答案】范文
Should We Explore the Sea
Our class recently engaged in a fiery debate regarding sea exploration. Supporters argue that the unexplored oceans may hold solutions to energy crises and medical breakthroughs. However, opponents emphasize ecological risks, pointing out that human activities may disrupt fragile ecosystems.
I firmly support regulated exploration. Firstly, exploring the sea helps discover new energy sources to replace the polluting fossil fuels. Additionally, sea creatures may hold cures for diseases we currently find difficult to treat. Most importantly, understanding the sea allows us to protect it better while using its resources wisely.
The future lies not in choosing between exploration and protection, but in harmonizing both through scientific wisdom and global cooperation.

[8分]Since young children went back to school across Sweden recently, many of their teachers have been putting a new emphasis on printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice, and devoting less time to tablets, independent online research and keyboarding skills.
The return to more traditional ways of learning is a response to politicians and experts questioning whether Sweden’s hyper-digitalized approach to education, including the introduction of tablets in nursery schools, had led to a decline in basic skills.
Sweden’s minister for schools, Lotta Edholm was one of the biggest critics of the all-out embrace of technology. “Sweden’s students need more textbooks,” Edholm said in March. “Physical books are important for student learning.” The minister announced in August that the government wanted to change the decision by the national agency for education to make digital devices compulsory in preschools. It plans to go further and to completely end digital learning for children under age six, the ministry has told the Associated Press.
Although Sweden’s students score above the European average for reading ability, an international assessment of fourth-grade reading levels, the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), highlighted a decline among Sweden’s children between 2016 and 2021.
In comparison, Singapore — which topped the rankings — improved its PIRLS reading scores from 576 to 587 during the same period, and England’s average reading achievement score fell only slightly, from 559 in 2016 to 558 in 2021. An overuse of screens during school lessons may cause youngsters to fall behind in core subjects, education experts say. “There’s clear scientific evidence that digital tools impair rather than enhance student learning,” Sweden’s Karolinska Institute, a highly respected medical school focused on research, said in a statement in August on the country’s national digitalization strategy in education.
“We believe the focus should return to acquiring knowledge through printed textbooks and teacher expertise, rather than acquiring knowledge primarily from freely available digital sources that have not been checked for accuracy.” the school added.
4．（2分）Why do Swedish schools return to paper books
A．To cater to parents’ increasing needs.
B．To help with children’s independent learning.
C．To overcome children’s addiction to digital tools.
D．To avoid possible decline in children’s basic skills.
5．（2分）What does the underlined words “all-out embrace” mean in Paragraph 3
A．Total acceptance. B．Creative use.
C．Rapid development. D．Serious addiction.
6．（2分）What might Karolinska Institute agree with

C．Popularity of Digitalization in Sweden D．Enhancement of Teaching Strategies in Sweden
[8分]In 1910, the Los Angeles Times ran a story about a boy tasked with opening a valve (阀门) on a steam-powered water pump to release built - up pressure. His entire job was staring at the machines all day, an incredibly boring task. The “lazy” boy, however, invented an automatic release that let the pump run properly, winning his freedom — and in doing so, creating the first automatic steam engine.
Though the story may be fictional, the boy’s behavior reflects a deeper truth: When we feel lazy, we often look for easier ways, trying to improve processes and save time and effort. In other words, laziness can drive innovation.
In recent years, some psychologists and business leaders have come to grasp this insight, shifting our view of what laziness really means. Walter Chrysler is said to have noted: “I always choose a lazy person to do a hard job because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it.”
Our brains are naturally inclined toward laziness. Unlike our ancestors, who had to conserve energy to compete for food, flee predators, and fight, we no longer face survival as a daily concern. It might seem natural to be “lazier,” but the opposite has happened. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Americans now sleep less and work more than before; worker productivity has risen 400 percent since 1950. Our culture teaches us that our worth depends on how hard we work. So we push even harder to produce more.
Yet there’s a big, sad paradox: The harder we work, the less productive we become. When demands rise, we tend to push harder. But without rest and recharge, we grow less efficient, make more mistakes, and feel less engaged.
So how can we make labor more meaningful and life more fulfilling Current research in psychology and neuroscience points to valuing a wandering mind. Take breaks, let thoughts drift — learn to be idle. This week, notice downtime in your day, empty spaces on your calendar. Instead of filling them with more work, just sit on the sofa and be, as poet Mary Oliver put it, “idle and blessed.”
8．（2分）What is the author’s attitude to the boy opening the valve
A．Dismissive.
B．Supportive.
C．Ambiguous.
D．Doubtful.
9．（2分）What can be concluded from paragraph 4
A．Contemporary society respects creativity.
B．Americans are living a worse life than before.
C．Our ancestors considered work unbearable.
D．People nowadays still need to struggle with poverty.
10．（2分）What does the underlined word “paradox” in paragraph 5 mean
A．Wild imagination.
B．Unclear explanation.
C．Strange contradiction.
D．Rare phenomenon.
11．（2分）What is the author’s purpose writing the text
A．Compare the old and new views on laziness.
B．Criticize irresponsible attitude towards hard work.
C．Advise people to abandon the value of hard work.
D．Inspire people to stay refreshed for better work and life.
[8分]Just off the Florida Keys lies the world’s third-largest coral reef (珊瑚礁), which was once an energetic habitat for millions of plants and animals. But an outbreak of stony coral tissue loss disease threatens to destroy 20 of the 45 species found there, including larger reef-building corals.
“This disease that is burning through the Florida Keys is an unbelievable event that is happening,” said Andrew Stamper, conservation science manager at Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment. “It’s like a wildfire.” Stamper said that would endanger Florida’s fishing industry and food supply. “Unfortunately, we do not know exactly what is causing this,” he said.
In order to save the reef, scientists have moved some species hundreds of miles away to a lab in Orlando. Scientists work to simulate breeding (繁殖) conditions in the lab. The conditions are exactly the same as the living conditions of the coral. The work needs a lot of care, effort and attention to detail. LED lights exactly copy the sun and moon cycles. Volunteers feed the coral in water treated to mimic its real habitat.
“This essentially is a gene bank,” said Jim Kinsler, leader of SeaWorld Orlando. “We’re trying to protect the genetics of these corals so that their offspring(后代)can eventually be returned back to the Florida reef area.”
The task of relocating the lab-grown coral to the sea is also a detailed task. Kinsler, who is part of a team of private and public partners operating the Florida Coral Rescue Center, said, “It’s the first time that many of them have been involved in rescuing an entire ecosystem,”
“We think the real challenge is just growing them out to a size, so we can test them in those waters, test their disease resistance (抵抗力), and then breed the successful corals by the hundreds of thousands literally,” said Andrew Walker, president of the Fish & Wildlife Foundation of Florida.
12．（2分）What do we know about the Florida Keys
A．It owns the world’s largest coral reef.
B．A disease broke out among people there.
C．The world’s third-largest coral reef is close to it.
D．It is now the habitat of millions of plants and animals.
13．（2分）What do Andrew Stamper’s words mean
A．The root of the disease is unclear.
B．A wildfire broke out in the Florida Keys.
C．The disease will spread across the Earth.
D．The disease has caused a great loss to the locals.
14．（2分）What does the underlined word “simulate” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Copy. B．Contrast. C．Escape. D．Feature.
15．（2分）What is the purpose of the research according to Andrew Walker
A．To restore the coral in the lab.
B．To sell the coral in the normal size.
C．To make more people involved in protecting the ecosystem.
D．To produce masses of disease-resistant coral back to the sea.

It was August, the busiest season for tourism. Oliver Holland, the owner of a restaurant in a scenic spot, was expecting as many as 500 tourists to visit and eat there each day. With a joyful heart, he jumped into his truck and set off to his restaurant. Before he turned onto the main road he had to go through an eleven-kilometer tunnel. It was the only access to his restaurant from his home.
Two years earlier a truck caught fire inside the tunnel and its closure for repairs was a huge blow to his business. When the road to his restaurant was blocked, the stream of tourists stopped. Although it was difficult, he managed to keep his staff on.
“This year will be a perfect year.” Oliver thought.
Inside the tunnel everything went normal. But when he was near the end, Oliver spotted an unusual light 50 meters ahead. Then he saw something burning.
He stopped in his tracks and saw a tour bus on fire! At the back where the engine was, dozens of tourists were running towards him.
“They’re going the wrong way.” Oliver thought, knowing the tunnel exit was just 500 meters ahead. Then he realized the bus was now burning so fiercely that it was impossible for them to get around it.
As a former volunteer firefighter, Oliver first had to raise the alarm. “A bus is on fire Stop the traffic!” he texted with shaking hands, while thick smoke pouring out of the bus kept blowing in his direction under the influence of the strong wind. In no time it would black out the tunnel, choking and blinding anyone inside it. There was no chance for the poor tourists to survive. Every minute counted.

参考答案
一、阅读单选（3题）
【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B
【分析】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了印度2025年的喀拉拉文学节，包括其议题、日程和影响力等。
【详解】1．推理判断题。根据第一段中“Some literary giants are fully engaged, sharing the knowledge of literature they’ve gathered over the years and thus enriching the experience for their audience. (多位文学巨匠倾情参与，分享他们多年积淀的文学知识，从而为观众带来更丰富的体验。)”可推知，喀拉拉文学节的目的是与书迷共享文学知识。故选D项。
2．细节理解题。根据第三段“Day 1 started with the ‘Children’s KLF: Storytelling’ group featuring a lively discussion about the challenges of adapting literature for the screen, whether as a screenplay or a film. Participants emphasised the difficulties of adapting a good book into either form while doing justice to the original work and the audience engagement in storytelling. (首届活动以“儿童KLF：讲故事”拉开序幕，该环节围绕文学作品影视化改编的挑战展开了热烈讨论——无论是改编成剧本还是电影。与会者重点探讨了将优秀文学作品改编为影视形式时所面临的双重困境：既要忠实于原著，又要确保故事情节对观众的吸引力。)”可知，为期三天的文学节讨论的内容包括文学作品影视化改编的挑战。故选C项。
3．细节理解题。根据最后一段“With literary giants travelling from around the world and their readers following, Kozhikode and the Kerala Literature Festival have established themselves as important destinations for book lovers. This growing importance contributed to Kozhikode being recognised as UNESCO’s City of Literature in 2024. (随着世界各地的文学巨匠纷至沓来，追随他们的读者也接踵而至，科泽科德和喀拉拉文学节已成为书迷们的重要朝圣地。正是这种日益增长的影响力，最终促使科泽科德在2024年被联合国教科文组织授予“文学之都”的称号。)”可知，科泽科德被联合国教科文组织评为“文学之都”得益于其日益增长的文学影响力。故选B项。
二、阅读单选（4题）
【答案】4．D 5．A 6．B 7．A
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了瑞典学校回归纸质书是为了避免儿童基本技能的可能下降，引用了各界人士对此的看法和态度。
【详解】4．细节理解题。根据第二段“The return to more traditional ways of learning is a response to politicians and experts questioning whether Sweden’s hyper-digitalized approach to education, including the introduction of tablets in nursery schools, had led to a decline in basic skills.(回归更传统的学习方式是对政治家和专家的回应，他们质疑瑞典的超数字化教育方式，包括在幼儿园引入平板电脑，是否导致了基本技能的下降)”可知，瑞典学校回归纸质书是为了避免儿童基本技能的可能下降。故选D。
5．词句猜测题。根据划线词后文““Sweden’s students need more textbooks,” Edholm said in March.(“瑞典的学生需要更多的教科书，”埃德霍尔姆在3月份说)”可知，埃德霍尔姆对于完全接受科技处于批评态度。故划线词意思是“完全接受”。故选A。
6．细节理解题。根据最后一段““We believe the focus should return to acquiring knowledge through printed textbooks and teacher expertise, rather than acquiring knowledge primarily from freely available digital sources that have not been checked for accuracy.” the school added.(“我们认为，重点应该回归到通过印刷教科书和教师专业知识获取知识，而不是主要从未经准确性检查的免费数字资源获取知识。”学校补充道)”可知，卡罗林斯卡学院可能会同意来自数字工具的知识可能不可靠。故选B。
7．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Since young children went back to school across Sweden recently, many of their teachers have been putting a new emphasis on printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice, and devoting less time to tablets, independent online research and keyboarding skills.(自从瑞典各地的孩子们最近回到学校以来，他们的许多老师都把新的重点放在了印刷书籍、安静的阅读时间和书写练习上，减少了花在平板电脑、独立在线研究和键盘技能上的时间)”结合文章主要说明了瑞典学校回归纸质书是为了避免儿童基本技能的可能下降，引用了各界人士对此的看法和态度。可知，A选项“瑞典儿童重返纸质书”最符合文章标题。故选A。
【答案】8．B 9．B 10．C 11．D
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章借男孩发明自动蒸汽发动机的故事引出“懒惰能驱动创新”观点，指出当下人们虽大脑倾向懒惰却工作更努力，陷入努力工作但效率降低的矛盾，建议人们学会休息放空，让工作和生活更有意义。
【详解】8．推理判断题。根据第二段“Though the story may be fictional, the boy’s behavior reflects a deeper truth: When we feel lazy, we often look for easier ways, trying to improve processes and save time and effort. In other words, laziness can drive innovation. (虽然这个故事可能是虚构的，但这个男孩的行为反映了一个更深层次的事实：当我们感到懒惰时，我们通常会寻找更简单的方法，试图改善流程，节省时间和精力。换句话说，懒惰可以推动创新。)”可推断作者对男孩这种看似懒惰实则创新的行为是支持的。故选B。
9．推理判断题。根据第四段“Our brains are naturally inclined toward laziness. Unlike our ancestors, who had to conserve energy to compete for food, flee predators, and fight, we no longer face survival as a daily concern. It might seem natural to be “lazier,” but the opposite has happened. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Americans now sleep less and work more than before; worker productivity has risen 400 percent since 1950. Our culture teaches us that our worth depends on how hard we work. So we push even harder to produce more. (我们的大脑天生就倾向于懒惰。与我们的祖先不同，他们必须保存能量来争夺食物，逃离掠食者，并进行战斗，我们不再把生存作为日常关注的问题。“更懒”似乎很自然，但事实恰恰相反。根据美国劳工统计局的数据，美国人现在比以前睡得更少，工作得更多；自1950年以来，工人的生产率提高了400%。我们的文化告诉我们，我们的价值取决于我们工作的努力程度。因此，我们更加努力地生产更多产品。)”指出美国人睡眠更少、工作时间更长且生产率激增但文化过度推崇“价值取决于努力工作”。此现象暗示生活压力增大，所以美国人的生活比以前更糟糕。故选B。
10．词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“The harder we work, the less productive we become. (我们工作越努力，效率却越低)”可知，工作越努力，效率却越低，是一种奇怪的矛盾情况，所以“paradox”意思是“Strange contradiction (奇怪的矛盾)”，故选C。
11．推理判断题。文章先阐述懒惰能驱动创新，接着指出人们工作中努力却低效的问题，再根据最后一段“So how can we make labor more meaningful and life more fulfilling Current research in psychology and neuroscience points to valuing a wandering mind. Take breaks, let thoughts drift — learn to be idle. This week, notice downtime in your day, empty spaces on your calendar. Instead of filling them with more work, just sit on the sofa and be, as poet Mary Oliver put it, “idle and blessed.” (那么，我们怎样才能让劳动更有意义，让生活更充实呢？目前心理学和神经科学的研究表明，人们重视走神。休息一下，让思绪飘散——学会闲散。这周，注意你一天中的休息时间，日历上的空白时间。与其用更多的工作填满它们，不如坐在沙发上，像诗人玛丽·奥利弗所说的那样，“悠闲而幸福”)”可推断作者目的是激励人们保持精神饱满，以获得更好的工作和生活。故选D。
【答案】12．C 13．A 14．A 15．D
【分析】本文为一篇新闻报道。佛罗里达附近的第三大珊瑚礁面临珊瑚组织丧失疾病的威胁，科学家们将一些物种转移到奥兰多的实验室以保护遗传基因，并试图培育出抵抗疾病的珊瑚。最终目标是将实验室培育的珊瑚重新回到佛罗里达旁的珊瑚礁区。
【详解】12．细节理解题。根据第一段“Just off the Florida Keys lies the world’s third-largest coral reef(珊瑚礁), which was once an energetic habitat for millions of plants and animals. But an outbreak of stony coral tissue loss disease threatens to destroy 20 of the 45 species found there, including larger reef-building corals. (佛罗里达群岛附近有世界第三大珊瑚礁，这里曾经是数百万动植物的栖息地。但是，石珊瑚组织丧失疾病的爆发威胁着那里45种珊瑚中的20种，包括更大的造礁珊瑚。)”可知，世界第三大珊瑚礁在佛罗里达群岛附近，爆发疾病的是珊瑚，珊瑚礁区有数百万动植物。故选C项。
13．推理判断题。根据第二段“‘This disease that is burning through the Florida Keys is an unbelievable event that is happening,' said Andrew Stamper, conservation science manager at Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment. ‘It’s like a wildfire.’ Stamper said that would endanger Florida’s fishing industry and food supply. ‘Unfortunately, we do not know exactly what is causing this,’ he said. (迪士尼动物、科学与环境保护科学经理斯坦珀说，‘正在佛罗里达群岛肆虐的这种疾病是一件令人难以置信的事情。它就像野火一样。’斯坦珀说，这将危及佛罗里达州的渔业和食品供应。他说，‘不幸的是，我们并不确切知道是什么导致了这种情况。’)”可知，珊瑚组织丧失疾病的根源尚不清楚。故选A项。
14．词句猜测题。根据第三段“In order to save the reef, scientists have moved some species hundreds of miles away to a lab in Orlando. Scientists work to simulate breeding(繁殖)conditions in the lab. The conditions are exactly the same as the living conditions of the coral. The work needs a lot of care, effort and attention to detail. LED lights exactly copy the sun and moon cycles. Volunteers feed the coral in water treated to mimic its real habitat. (为了拯救珊瑚礁，科学家们已经将一些物种转移到数百英里外奥兰多的一个实验室。科学家们在实验室里simulate繁殖条件。这些条件与珊瑚的生存条件完全相同。这项工作需要大量的细心、努力和对细节的关注。LED灯完全模仿太阳和月亮的周期。志愿者用模拟珊瑚真实栖息地的水喂养珊瑚。)”可知，在实验室里创造出的生存条件、太阳、月亮的周期，以及水都与珊瑚礁在原来栖息地的条件完全相同，即实验室模拟了珊瑚礁原有的繁殖条件，simulate意为“模拟，模仿”，与Copy意思相近，故选A项。
15．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“‘This essentially is a gene bank,’ said Jim Kinsler, leader of SeaWorld Orlando. ‘We’re trying to protect the genetics of these corals so that their offspring (后代) can eventually be returned back to the Florida reef area.’ (奥兰多海洋世界的负责人金斯勒说，这实际上是一个基因库,‘我们正在努力保护这些珊瑚的基因，这样它们的后代最终就能回到佛罗里达的珊瑚礁区。’)”可知，科学家们保护珊瑚基因，希望能使他们的后代重返佛罗里达的珊瑚礁区。最后一段“‘We think the real challenge is just growing them out to a size, so we can test them in those waters, test their disease resistance (抵抗力), and then breed the successful corals by the hundreds of thousands literally,’ said Andrew Walker, president of the Fish & Wildlife Foundation of Florida. (佛罗里达州鱼类和野生动物基金会主席安德鲁·沃克说：‘我们认为真正的挑战只是把它们长到一定的尺寸，这样我们就可以在那些水域测试它们，测试它们的抗病能力，然后培育出成千上万的成功珊瑚。’)”，根据安德鲁·沃克的话可知，研究的目的是实验室能培育出成千上万的有抗病能力的珊瑚，这样它们才有机会重新回到佛罗里达的珊瑚礁区。故选D项。
三、七选五阅读

(如果你正在做的事情没有挑战你，那么它也不会改变你。毕竟，我们在生活中都需要一些正常的压力。)”，下文“So challenge the following limits: (所以挑战以下限制：)”可知，人们应该给自己一点挑战和压力，空出与下文为因果关系，G项“You can never see any improvement if you stick to your comfort zone.

(有人可能会挂断你的电话。)”，句中的hang up on you，话题与上文一致，都在谈论打电话这件事，上下文衔接连贯，故选A项。
18．此处考查段落小标题，下文“Make sure this hobby is not linked to your career; you have to relax and relieve your stress while performing this. Some examples might be cooking, sewing, painting and so on. Apart from helping you challenge yourself, taking a class for your hobby may also give you extra income. (确保这个爱好与你的职业无关；在做这个的时候，你必须放松，释放你的压力。比如烹饪、缝纫、绘画等等。除了帮助你挑战自我之外，为你的爱好参加课程也可以给你带来额外的收入)”可知，本段主要讲述了培养职业之外的爱好及其好处，taking a class for your hobby为复现短语，F项“Take a class for a hobby you’ve been wanting to develop. (参加一个你一直想培养爱好的培训班。)”，符合本段主旨，适合作为主题句，故选F项。
19．本段的小标题为“Set aside at least nine minutes a day for physical exercise. (每天至少留出9分钟时间进行体育锻炼)”，本段主要讲述锻炼，下文“A simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself. (绕着你的邻居跑步9分钟可以给你带来奇效。)”可知，锻炼不必太在意场地，C项“You don’t need to go to the gym. (你不需要去健身房。)”，下文承接C项，衔接连贯，故选C项。
20．本段小标题为“Travel and allow yourself to be interested in new people. (去旅行，让自己对新的人感兴趣。)”，根据上文“Get out of your house or go online to book your ticket right now. (Get out of your house or go online to book your ticket right now.)”可知，本段主要讲述旅游，Travel为复现词，E项“Start to travel now and learn to challenge yourself. (现在就开始旅行，学会挑战自己。)”，E项承接上文，呼应本段主题。故选E项。

44．【答案】范文
Should We Explore the Sea
Our class recently engaged in a fiery debate regarding sea exploration. Supporters argue that the unexplored oceans may hold solutions to energy crises and medical breakthroughs. However, opponents emphasize ecological risks, pointing out that human activities may disrupt fragile ecosystems.
I firmly support regulated exploration. Firstly, exploring the sea helps discover new energy sources to replace the polluting fossil fuels. Additionally, sea creatures may hold cures for diseases we currently find difficult to treat. Most importantly, understanding the sea allows us to protect it better while using its resources wisely.
The future lies not in choosing between exploration and protection, but in harmonizing both through scientific wisdom and global cooperation.

45．【答案】As a former volunteer firefighter, Oliver knew immediately what should be done. He jumped out of his truck and opened the doors to the empty cargo (货物) space. He shouted and waved his arms in the air, signaling people to run towards his truck. As the smoke became thicker and spread increasingly faster, the frightened tourists started to flood in. It was a race against death. As soon as the tourists flooded into the truck, he sped away.
After a 2 minutes’desperate drive, finally they arrived at the exit of the tunnel! What a narrow escape! All of them breathed with relief and thanked Oliver. They felt that without him, they would have been choked to death in the tunnel. However, his eyebrows were knitted into a deep frown. He was worried whether the tunnel would be closed for a long time again. But that was not going to happen. Thanks to his message, the firefighters arrived just in time to put the fire out and the tunnel would be reopened within hours.
